Recently, the demand for a PRT(Personal Rapid Transit) system based on autonomous navigation is increasing. Accordingly, the applicability investigations of the PRT system on rail tracks or roadways have been widely studied. In the case of unmanned vehicle operations without physical guideways on roadways, to monitor the position of the vehicle in real time is very important for stable, robust and reliable guidance of an autonomous vehicle. The Global Positioning System (GPS) has been commercially used for vehicle positioning. However, it cannot be applied in environments as tunnels or interiors of buildings. The PRT navigation system based on magnetic markers reference sensing that can overcome these environmental restrictions and the vehicle dynamics model for its H/W configuration are presented in this study. In addition, the design of a control S/W dedicated for unmanned operation of a PRT vehicle and its prototype implementation for experimental validation on a pilot network were successfully achieved.

In this paper, the parallel model for stereo camera is employed to find the heralding angle and the distance between a leading vehicle and the following vehicle, BART(Binocular Autonomous Research Team vehicle). Two TDNNs (Time Delay Neural Network) such as S-TDNN and A-TDNN are introduced to control BART. S-TDNN controls the speed of the following vehicle while A-TDNN controls the steering angle of BATR. A human drives BART to collect data which are used for training the said neural networks. The trained networks performed the vehicle tracking function satisfactorily under the same driving conditions performed by the human driver. The neural network approach has good portability which decreases costs and saves development time for the different types of vehicles.

컴퓨터의 발전은 철도 산업에 큰 영향을 끼치고 있다. 특히 기계식이나 수동식 신호 장치들이 마이크로프로세서를 탑재하면서 전자식, 자동식으로 변경되면서 철도 신호 시스템에 큰 변화를 가져왔다. 이로 인해 안전성은 더 높아지고 수송력 또한 증가하게 되었다. 이런 변화에 핵심적인 역할을 하는 것이 바로 열차집중제어장치이다 열차집중제어장치는 기본적인 역할은 운행되는 열차들의 운전정보를 획득하고 이 정보들을 이용하여 효율적으로 차량을 운행하게 제어하는 것이다. 하지만, 다양한 철도 차량들이 생겨나고 신호 시스템이 발전하게 되면서 열차집중제어장치도 더 다양한 기능과 처리 능력을 가지도록 설계되어져야 한다. 특히, 현재 큰 관심을 받고 있는 무인운전, 무선을 이용한 철도 시스템에서는 열차집중제어장치의 역할이 매우 중요한 부분이 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 상황을 고려하여 실시간으로 정보를 처리하고, 차량을 안전하게 제어하며, 모든 상황들을 정보화할 수 있는 열차집중제어장치에 대한 설계를 하고자 한다.

In this paper, unmanned driving of robotic vehicle using magnetic marker is proposed. One of the most important component of autonomous vehicle is to detect the position of a magnetic marker on the road. In order to calculate the precise position of a magnet embedded on the road, the relation of magnetic field and a sensor is analyzed, and a new position sensing system using arrayed magnetic sensor is proposed. Also, the steering control system using a stepping motor is developed for driving by automatic mode as well as manual mode. For the verification of usability, the developed robotic vehicle is tested on magnetic road.

This paper describes the developments to improve the feeling and safety of the remote control system of unmanned vehicles. Generally, in the case of the remote control systems, a joystick-type device or a simple steering-wheel are used. There are many cases, in which there are operations without considering the feedback to users and driving feel. Recently, as the application area of the unmanned vehicles has been extended, the problems caused by not considering the feedback are emphasized. Therefore, the need for a force feedback-haptic control arises to solve these problems. In this study, the force feedback-haptic control algorithm considering the vehicle parameters is proposed. The vehicle parameters include first the state variables of dynamics, such as the body side-slip angle (${\beta}$) and yawrate (${\gamma}$), and second, the parameters representing the driving situations. Force feedback-haptic control technology consists of the algorithms for general and specific situations, and considers the situation transition process. To verify the algorithms, a simulator was constructed using the vehicle dynamics simulation tool with CAN communication environment. Using the simulator, the feasibility of the algorithms was verified in various scenarios.

Block system has been used to protect trains from occupying the same section of track at the same time so that only one train is permitted in each block at a time. Domestic driving regulations on the block system is divided into two classifications, such as regular block and substitute block. If it is impossible to use this regulation, the block applied method can be applied. However, domestic urban railway administrator has established his own operation rule within the regulation. Therefore, in order to assure continuous safety of train in operation, it is necessary to strengthen the regulation as can cope with the various block systems. In this study, domestic urban railway administration's own rules are examined and the appropriate driving regulation on the block system is proposed.

This paper describes the development of unmanned vehicle remote control system which is configured with steering and accelerating/braking hardware to improve the sense of reality and safety of control. Generally, in these case of the remote control system, a joystick-type device is used for steering and accelerating/braking control of unmanned vehicle in most cases. Other systems have been developing using simple steering wheel, but there is no function of that feedback the feeling of driving situation to users and it mostly doesn't include the accelerating/braking control hardware. The technology of feedback means that a reproducing the feeling of current driving situation through steering and accelerating/braking hardware when driving a vehicle in person. In addition to studying feedback technologies that reduce unfamiliarity in remote control of unmanned vehicles, it is necessary to develop the remote control system with hardware that can improve sense of reality. Therefore, in this study, the reliable remote control system is developed and required system specification is defined for applying force-feedback haptic control technology developed through previous research. The system consists of a steering-wheel module similar to a normal vehicle and an accelerating/braking pedal module with actuators to operate by feedback commands. In addition, the software environment configured by CAN communication to send feedback commands to each modules. To verify the reliability of the remote control system, the force-feedback haptic control algorithms developed through previous research were applied, to assess the behavior of the algorithms in each situation.
